We visited Virginia Safari Park 3 years ago and were really impressed with this unique place. My previous posts can be found here, here and here. Therefore, we decided to repeat this experience again while it was still nice and warm. In 2015, FamilyFun magazine named Virginia Safari Park a Top 10 Animal Attraction in the United States, based on a survey of 2,000 parents.
This is Virginia’s largest, and only drive-thru zoo! 3 miles of safari roads wind through the beautiful Shenandoah Valley countryside, where visitors can have a close look at the animals in a natural environment. Feeding animals from the car window is so much fun!
In addition to the drive-through safari, the park has a Village Walk-Thru that includes a small zoo and a Tiger Territory. For a hands-on or up-close experience, the village also has a petting area with farmyard animals, a kangaroo “walk-about,” a budgie adventure aviary, and a giraffe feeding station.
